Disclaimer: I think it's obvious I own nothing.
Chapter 2- Arriving at Hogwarts
"Ron?! Ron! Can you hear me?"
Hermione's attempts to awaken her friend were useless. Hermione rounded on Malfoy, and he looked frightened by her expression. He resumed his cool, and drawled, "Hey Mudblood! Looks like your boyfriend is out cold!" He laughed menacingly.
Hermione jinxed him to next Tuesday, while Crabbe and Goyle cracked their knuckles threateningly.
"Move out boys," Hermione shrilled, "You don't add much to the décor."
She then jinxed them so they bunny-hopped out.
Hermione knelt next to Ron and whispered, "Ennervate!"
Ron suddenly awoke, and sat up nervously. "Hermione? Wh-What happened? I was eating a chocolate frog, and I turned around, because the door opened, and I thought it was you, but there was Malfoy, with his wand on me…."
Hermione silenced him by kissing his cheek. "It's Okay, Ron. We're nearly at Hogwarts. You have to get changed into your robes. And since we're prefects, we have to help the 1st years."
Ron groaned. "Stupid first years," he thought.
Soon after, they got off the Hogwarts Express, helped the first years, and got into Hogwarts. Hermione didn't realize how much she missed the vast castle until the sight came around the corner.
Ron and Hermione went into the Great Hall, with Ron anticipating the feast.
After the sorting, the school had the start-of-term feast. Dumbledore rose. "Hello! And welcome to Hogwarts! I have a few start-of-term notices I can give out, but they can wait until after the feast. Tuck in!"
Suddenly, mounds of potatoes, piles of chicken, bushels of apples, pears, oranges, and Nimpwentz (a new candy from Honeydukes) cluttered the four house tables.
A/N: I know, I know, it's almost as short as the last one. I'm adding the next chapter today though, too. Review!! It's one of the pleasures in my life.
